Summary: Not Worth It!
Comment: I was caught by the title of this book and couldn't wait to read it in one sitting since it is quite small. I was so sorely disappointed. There wasn't any redeeming qualities at all.
This book failed in 2 major areas: 1. It gives us nothing of values when it comes to management skills. Very poor in showing any application in what the author would submit as a "management" statement. They would be better qualified as "one liners" or thoughts fom a manager. Though even at that there was no defense or application at all.
2. I had expected to read Jesus's thoughts on management; deep insights from the one called the Son of God; at least a little ray of light from heaven. Absolutely NOTHING!!! This is a blatant example of exploitation on the name of Jesus. It is almost as if the christian market was targeted and yet only light sprinkles from the Bible or a quote would satisfy the target.
I honestly believe that the "manangement" points were selected and then a supporting verse or Biblical statement was searched for to add on and call it Jesus's.
This book is a sham. Maybe I feel strongly about this review because I know the Bible and I teach leadership skills internationally.

Summary: This book left me wanting for more
Comment: As a corporate middle manager and as a Christian, I was intrigued by this slim volume. I was encouraged by its message of servant leadership, but wished for greater depth and detail. I also felt that the author stretched some of the quoted scriptures to fit the chosen topic, to the extent that I was occasionally uncertain as to how the scripture supported the topic.
Rating: 5
Summary: Outstanding guide for managers and everyone else
Comment: Mr. Briner does an excellent job of bringing out some of the basic principles of management and tying them into the teachings of Christ. Very readable and thought-provoking without (pardon the pun) preaching.
